Fees and Refund Policy

AKYLADE reserves the right to assess fees for all services, including application, examination, recertification, challenging failed examination scores, duplicate certificates, and publications.

Fees are also charged for late applications, rescheduling an examination without a valid reason, extensions, and other circumstances as deemed appropriate.

Fees are subject to change and the candidate is responsible to submit the current and correct fee for any aspect of certification.

All fees shall be published on the AKYLADE website located at www.akylade.com.

Refunds are granted at the discretion of the certification staff granted for excepted circumstances such as emergency cancellations or withdrawals from the examination process.
